    Editor

    New York, NY

     

    I began working on Scope 13 years ago and fell in love with writing and editing stories for middle schoolers. When I’m not crafting stories for your students, you can find me reading, watching a new TV show, or exploring a new coffee shop in my neighborhood. Thank you for making Scope a part of your teaching journey!

    I’ve been an art director for Scholastic Magazines+ since the late ’90s. I currently handle Scope and Storyworks 4-6, bringing pages to life by creating punchy layouts and using impactful illustrations to spark excitement for learning.
